According to the Los Angeles Police Department, officers arrived at a home in the 17300 block of Firma Ct. around 12:30 p.m. The home was operating as a daycare called "The Kids Dream Learning Center" with 17 children and five adults inside. 

A 33-year-old woman was shot in the arm and a 62-year-old woman was shot in the back. No children were hurt. The alleged gunman fled the area but was located and taken into custody in Van Nuys.

Police believe it may have been a case of domestic violence.

"The general public is not in harm's way right now because I believe this was a specific relationship that the suspect had with the victims and was targeting them," Captain Kathleen Burns of the LAPD's Devonshire Division said.

A family member told FOX 11 the shooter is 70-years-old and suffers from mental illness and dementia. An attorney for the daycare told FOX 11 that they have had a "serious problem" with this man in the past, and that they had previously requested a temporary restraining order against him, which was denied. 

According to officials, he had just been served a restraining order this morning.
